IOF obstructs movement of West Bankers in Tubas and Qalqilya

Sunday 9-September-2018

The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Saturday afternoon obstructed the movement of Palestinian citizens at the abandoned Tayasir military checkpoint east of the West Bank city of Tubas.

Local sources told the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) that Israeli forces stationed themselves at the entrance of a previous army post in Tayasir and embarked on intercepting and searching Palestinian vehicles which caused traffic jams.

The sources pointed out that Israeli soldiers come to this area every once in a while and restrict the movement of Palestinian citizens and vehicles.

In a separate incident the IOF set up a makeshift checkpoint at the eastern entrance to Qalqilya city and stopped Palestinian cars for search.
